The Natural Fertility Community

Hi, I'm Jennifer and my husband and I have been ttc for over two years now. I guess I feel different from all the people here because I'm only 26 and we have no known problems. My cycles are 29-35 days long, so maybe I have a hormone imbalance... We are currently seeing a licenced acupuncturist (since Nov 2009), and I'm going to my OBGYN tomorrow to get my thyroid, progesterone, etc. checked out. My doctor didn't check out any of that last year because we had not been trying for a full year yet. Everyone tells me that I'm young and have nothing to worry about, but it's been over two years, so obviously there's something going on!

I'm taking vitex, maca, acetyl l carnitine, l arginine, prenatal multi, evening primrose until I ovulate, progesterone cream after I ovulate.

My husband is taking maca, l carnitne, male mult, and some chinese herbs that our acupuncturist gave him.

We have been on the fertility diet since last November, but we only just switched to everything organic last month.

We're so frustrated and don't know what else to do! We don't want to do ART because it's against our religion. We know a few women who took fertility drugs and got pregnant, but the side effects were awful-- and some of them got cancer--so we really don't want to do that, either! Anything else we can do???

Welcome southernbelle2010! Glad you are here.

Do you chart your cycle? Has your husband been tested?
